Description
The first document attesting to a brewery in Cazeau is dated 17 october 1753. After 7 generations of family members running the brewery, the brewing ceased in 1969. In 2004, 35 years after the last brewing activities, Laurent Agache, 8th generation family member, started a partnership with his cousin and friend Quentin Mariage, to revitalize the brewery. They renovated the buildings and bought second hand equipment in the North of England. Currently, the brewery offers five beers with great character that are neither filtered nor pasteurized, all of which are refermented in the bottle.

If the brewery is keen on the traditional manufacturing process, it is nevertheless oriented towards innovation through a continuous search for new tastes so that beer aficionados will ever be surprised. At Brasserie de Cazeau, new typified hops, of various origins, are unceasingly tested and mixed in order to obtain beers with original, refined flavours.

Update: Profile garde une pointe de réglisse appréciable. Palais est similaire avec réglisse et ce malté bien présent surtout au niveau chocolaté, fruité rouge/noir, garde une pointe aigreur possible de la levure. Reste une bière solide. Bouteille 33cl. Brune claire, col beige/ocre. Arôme, malt grillé, léger houblon, levure belge et une fine touche de malt biscuité. J’ai trouvé le nez un peu en retrait par rapport à ce que j’attendais d’une bière de Noël. Le palais présente un profile malté grillé avec note de houblon américain légèrement citronné, On y ressent cette levure belge qui est accompagnée de malt tirant sur le caramel/biscuit avec au fini une note de poudre de cacao qui se fait plus présente lorsque la bière se réchauffe. Un fini qui mélange allégrement amertume et malt pour un aspect soyeux et à la fois épais finissant sur une touche d’épice.

Draft @ Festival brassicole de Tournai. Dorée, col blanc. Arôme, levure cave, houblonné avec une note de cône de pin. Citronné et végétale venant peut-être de la levure avec malt. Une bière qui mélange la levure, blé et houblon style goldings donnant une bière qui en bouche est sèche, finement amer, herbeux, fruitée avec malt pale laissant une fine touche de caramel et au fini un peu de sucre brun.

Bouteille @ Festival brassicole de Tournai. Dorée avec col blanc. Arôme est houblonné de Tomahawk donnant un nez citronné et de fleur de houblon, le tout est garde un nez malt qui reste léger. En bouche, une bière de type belge mais là aussi je note l’usage de ce houblon américain qui confère à la bière un palais agréable citronné et fruité (possible abricot sec?). Légère amertume avec des notes d’épices. Malt donne quant à lui une fine couche de caramel avec une note d’orge pour un fini qui est un peu sec en bouche.Une bière légère, facile à boire et qui ose le changement de par ce houblon.

330 ml bottle, from Voldby Købmandsgård, Denmark. A Belgian Strong Ale, closer to an Abbey Dubbel than a Saison. ABV is 8.2%. Very dark brown colour, moderate cream-coloured head, nice lacing. Strong sweetish and "perfumed" aroma, notes of flowers (lilies?) and dark dried fruits, also notes of caramel and brown kandi sugar. The flavour is sweet and malty, notes of caramel and brown kandi sugar again, also spicy notes, hints of anise, tolerable hops in the finish. Quite enjoyable.

Little aroma, save for some faint charcoal and raisin notes. Black, thick beige head, good lacing. Charcoal on the front with candied plums toward the end. Not too sweet. Filmy mouthfeel, somewhat light bodied. Ok, but has a few detractors.

Very funky aroma in a rather bad way. Sweaty gym socks and lemons. Hazy yellow, lots of carbonation, thick head, good lacing. Silky mouthfeel, refereshing, easily quaffable. Whole lemon flavor, lemongrass finish.
